BACKWATER BOOGIE BAND

A: Git On Down

B: Sweet Beach Music

[4 SALE 1003, US]

MEGA RARE and in-demand 45 from the Carolinas. "Git On Down" is an absolute DYNAMITE modern soul / disco / boogie dancer which has been getting big spins over the past few years. Beach/ shag dancer on the flipside. Very seldom turns up for sale!

 The 45 appears to be un-played and in at least vg+ condition. Vinyl plays strong and clear, with no imperfections. Vinyl has a few "scuff" spots in a couple of areas (like what may come from being stored in sleeve) that is seen when holding record at angle under light. Nice gloss/shine to 45. As I am from the Carolinas, I have reason to believe this is old un-played store stock. On B side there are a couple of odd surface areas on left side of label I believe are from the manufacturing process. I've had several copies of this 45 and this was present on all of them same shape and appearance. I've tried to show this in the next to last picture. The record does have a very very slight (what I call) "dish" type bend/warp (from center out). You should be able to tell from last pic how slight it is.  I try to represent my listings with good pics so one knows exactly what they're getting, but please remember that the camera pics tend to show details that aren't apparent to the naked eye.  


I don't ship media mail due to longer handling time thus more chance of damage and loss. Also media mail is periodically opened and inspected. I ship Priority Mail, and double box. Please see feedback. Any questions or concerns please just ask.  Thanks for Looking!
